Looking for the best Galaxy Z Flip 5 deals in the UK?

Fortunately, while Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 5 doesn’t land on store shelves until August 11, there are some incredible preorder deals that offer huge savings on the all-new foldable ahead of its official launch.

But you’ll need to act fast – these blockbuster preorder deals will only be available until 11.59pm on Thursday, August 10. If you miss that deadline, you’ll need to pay more (and subscribe to Disney+ off your own back) when upgrading to Galaxy Z Flip 5.

Unlike some of its closest rivals, placing a preorder for the latest handset from Samsung isn’t just about bragging rights …there are genuinely brilliant deals for those at the front of the (digital) queue. Samsung is encouraging fans to upgrade to the latest entry in the Galaxy Z Flip series with a free upgrade to the built-in storage, and an annual subscription to Disney+ worth £79.90.

Not only that, but the South Korean firm has also supercharged its trade-in offers, with a discount of up to £560 available on the Galaxy Z Flip 5. Of course, the exact discount depends on the model, make, and condition of the handset you’re handing over.

No phone to trade in? Not a problem, use the discount code ZSAVE100 to get an extra £100 off at checkout. 

If you do decide to take advantage of the boosted trade-in values, Samsung will immediately discount the new Galaxy Z Flip 5 during the checkout process, but don’t worry – you won’t need to post your existing handset to them until the new one arrives.

That means you’ll be able to transfer your apps, photos, and contacts between phones and only part with your existing phone when you’re sure you haven’t lost any data.

Galaxy Z Flip 5 was announced alongside a slew of new gadgets at the latest Galaxy Unpacked keynote. Looking for the best Galaxy Z Fold 5 deals? We’ve put together the latest discounts in a separate guide, as well as the best Galaxy Watch 6 Classic deals.

Below, we’ve rounded up some of the best Galaxy Z Flip 5 deals available today.

We’ll continue to update this guide as pricing is confirmed from UK mobile networks for those who want to buy the phone on a pay monthly deal. After the Galaxy Z Flip 5 release date on August 11, we’ll add SIM-free pricing from retailers like Argos, John Lewis & Partners, Amazon, and Currys. Stay tuned.

With the arrival of the Galaxy Z Flip 5, Samsung increased the cost of its foldable phones in the UK.

Galaxy Z Flip 5 starts from £1,049 for the 256GB model, rising to £1,149 for the 512GB variant. For comparison, Galaxy Z Flip 4 started from £999 when it was released last summer, although that model did only have 128GB of built-in storage.

Still, those who want the most affordable model in the new Galaxy Z Flip range will need to spend £50 more this time around. While there might only be two variants of the Galaxy Z Flip 5, Samsung more than makes up for that with a dizzying choice of colours.

Its new foldable arrives in a choice of Mint, Graphite, Lavender, and Cream, as well as Grey, Blue, Green, and Yellow when bought exclusively from the Samsung Store.

Samsung has confirmed some incredible preorder deals ahead of the Galaxy Z Flip 5 release date on August 11, 2023.

For a limited time, Samsung will double the storage in your Galaxy Z Flip 5 at no extra cost. That means you’ll be able to pick up the top-end 512GB variant for just £1,049. That definitely softens the blow of the price rise, since that’s much cheaper than Galaxy Z Flip 4 owners paid for the same amount of internal storage last year.

But it gets even better. If you’re not able to take advantage of the mind-boggling trade-in offers available from Samsung (more on those later) then use the discount code ZSAVE100 at checkout to get an extra £100 off your new phone.

That drops the cost of the 512GB version of the Galaxy Z Flip 5 from an RRP of £1,149 down to just £959.

As well as doubling your storage at no cost, Samsung is bundling an annual Disney+ subscription for free with all preorders. This usually costs £79.90, so it’s a generous freebie and means you’ll be able to binge boxsets like WandaVision, Dopesick, Star Wars: Andor, Secret Invasion, and more on the 6.7-inch AMOLED on the Galaxy Z Flip 5 …or any other devices with the Disney+ app.

It’s worth noting that Samsung will include the free Disney+ subscription with all Galaxy Z Flip 5 preorders – no matter where you decide to buy the handset. You’ll be able to claim the annual subscription after your purchase, so that’s a guaranteed perk even if you decide to buy on a pay monthly deal.

That said, there are a number of advantages to buying the Galaxy Z Flip 5 direct from the Samsung store, including the exclusive colour options. Galaxy Z Flip 5 is available exclusively in Yellow, Grey, and Blue when bought from Samsung (either online or in-store) in addition to the standard Graphite, Cream, Mint, and Lavender shades available nationwide.

Samsung has also increased its trade-in offers to encourage fans to upgrade to the brand-new Galaxy Z Flip 5.

For a limited time, you can secure a discount of up to £560, although the exact amount will depend on the make, model, and condition of the smartphone you’re looking to hand in to Samsung. Trading in an iPhone 14 Pro, Galaxy S23 Ultra, or Galaxy Z Fold 4 will net the biggest discount on your new phone.

If you’d rather buy your new Galaxy Z Flip 5 on a pay monthly contract, the biggest UK mobile carriers are slowly revealing their preorder deals for the new foldable. And there are some stellar packages available.

It’s worth noting that regardless of whether you buy the Galaxy Z Flip 5 direct from Samsung or with a pay monthly contract from EE, Three, O2, Vodafone, Sky Mobile, or others …you’ll still be able to claim the 6-month free subscription to Disney+.

To make comparing the latest Galaxy Z Flip 5 deals easier, we’ve picked plans with roughly 20-30GB of 5G mobile data allowance each month.

For our money, that’s more than enough to stream music from Spotify, watch a few clips on YouTube or TikTok, upload snaps to Instagram, and answer WhatsApp video calls away from Wi-Fi.

Those who use their phone to tether to a laptop to work when away from a wireless broadband connection will need a little more data, while those who are permanently connected to their home, office, or public Wi-Fi networks might need a little less. This data allowance can be tweaked when you get to checkout. However, 20-30GB is a good middle ground that should suit most use cases.

Without a doubt, the biggest change to the Galaxy Z Flip 5 is found on the outside of the handset.

Samsung has dramatically expanded the size of the Cover Screen to 3.4 inches. This additional screen real estate means you can reply to texts with a full-sized QWERTY keyboard, check calendar appointments, follow turn-by-turn directions on Google Maps, and much more, without the need to flip open the 6.7-inch foldable screen every time.

There are a truckload of new customisation options available on this larger Cover Screen, so Galaxy Z Flip 5 owners can change the background and typeface. The interface is very similar to recent generations of the Galaxy Watch.

Samsung has reworked its hinge mechanism for the Flip 5, which reduces the overall thickness of the handset –now just 151mm when folded, compared to 17.1mm on the Flip 4.

That’s perfect if you’re planning to keep the device in a pocket or small bag. When closed, the tighter hinge design has the benefit of reducing the chance of dust or lint gathering inside your phone.

Samsung still offers the same IPX8 water resistance rating as the previous generation, which should save your shiny new phone from any accidental baths in the toilet, or showers under spilled drinks.

The latest Gorilla Glass has been used on the front and back of the handset to shield it from scuffs, scratches …and the occasional drop.

Galaxy Z Flip 5 keeps the same dual-camera system on the back as its predecessor, both 12MP sensors. Flip open the phone and there’s a selfie camera in a small pin-shaped cut-out.

Powering everything in the Galaxy Z Fold 5 is the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy, the same flagship chipset found inside the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy S23 Ultra from earlier this year.

Galaxy Z Flip 5 is available in Graphite, Cream, Mint, and its trademark Lavender shade. As always, there will be exclusive colour options only available from the Samsung Store (online or in-store), including Yellow, Grey, and Blue.
